Re: Notorial act without certificate wording

I'd say the document had electronic signatures UNTIL IT WAS PRINTED. Then it had computer-printed signatures.

Next, unless you're an attorney, the kind of notarial act to perform isn't up to you, it's up to the signers or the entity that is asking for the document to be notarized. Somebody else needs to choose the kind of notarial act. (Maybe that's what happened and you just didn't mention it in your post.)

Since it turned out to be an acknowledgement, the signers could have just pointed to whatever kind of signature was on the document and say to you "I signed that as my free act and deed" or equivalent wording, and you could have notarized it. But it doesn't hurt to have them sign again with pen and ink.

If it had been an oath or solemn affirmation, signing again would have been mandatory.
